Kaytee and Meredith return this week to chat about books with you! How do you feel about the backlist? We\\u2019re going there.

You\\u2019ll hear a \\u201cbookish moment of the week\\u201d from each of us: using books as a coping strategy and books that you\\u2019ve been meaning to read for more than decade\\u2026

We dive in to discussing 3 books each. These mostly take a trip down backlist lane, because only one is brand new and the rest are back in the catalog.

Next we get into every listener\\u2019s most-asked question: a brief overview of how in the /world/ Kaytee reads SO much while homeschooling all those children.

We finish up with A Book (yep, capitalized) that we\\u2019d like to put into every reader\\u2019s hands. We\\u2019ve got a book that will make your life better and a series that you have to push through the first book to get to the way better second and third books.

Time-stamped show notes are below with references to every book and resource we mentioned in this episode. If you\\u2019d like to listen first and not spoil the surprise, don\\u2019t scroll down!\\xa0
